Just to bring more discussion back on this topic.

DAL gets 50% No CAP
32% retirement (so equals a full retirement at normal pay)

TA

=inheritIncrease LTD benefit cap to $12,500/month Jan 2023; indexed to future pay rate increases (e.g., $13,125 after next 5% pay raise NLT Jan 2024)

After 36 months on LTD, cap increases 16% (e.g., $12,500 cap increases to $14,500/month and $13,125 cap increases to $15,225)

So we get a half retirement after 3 years and DAL gets a full retirement on day 1? Plus for many due to our cap it’s less then half retirement.

Yes ours is tax free and DAL’s is taxable.

On yesterdays town hall. They said we’d love to have DAL’s LTD but it’s to expensive and the company would want us to have DAL’s medical insurance which we don’t want.

Let me repeat - DAL gets full retirement on day 1 of LTD - United Pilots get 50% of retirement after 36 months in LTD. WTF!

This is totally unacceptable and needs to change in TA2
